GST Registration - Turnover is the Benchmark...
What amount of revenue must be generated in order to register for GST?
A business must register for GST if its yearly revenue in India reaches Rs. 40 lakh (Rs. 20 lakhs for firms in some special category states). In response to the concerns of MSMEs, the GST Council increased the minimum threshold for GST registration from Rs. 20 lakhs to Rs. 40 lakhs (from Rs. 10 lakhs to Rs. 20 lakhs for states under special category). This exempted many small enterprises from paying GST.
Nonetheless, some companies must register for GST regardless of their yearly revenue, such as those involved in e-commerce or interstate transactions. The least level of registration must be determined after carefully reviewing the applicable GST legislation and regulations.

For enterprises operating in most states, the annual revenue threshold for GST registration is Rs. 40 lakhs (for the supply of commodities) and Rs. 20 lakhs (for the supply of services).
However, the threshold limit for GST registration is a yearly turnover of Rs. 20 lakhs (for the supply of products) and Rs. 10 lakhs for firms operating in special category states like Arunachal Pradesh, Manipur, Meghalaya, Mizoram, Nagaland, Tripura, and Sikkim (for the supply of services).

Reminder: Companies can voluntarily register for GST even if their annual turnover is below the threshold. They may find it easier to follow tax laws and take advantage of certain benefits as a result.
